When Aimee Sher found out she was pregnant, she started doodling. Those doodles turned into an adorable line of screen-printed baby T's and onesies. The local graphic designer (who is due any day now) and her husband Sven Bolen began to draw little critters, bikes, and skateboards on tiny tikes' duds. Thus, their company, Eight3One, was born before their baby.
The original design is of a self-satisfied monkey with one curlicue hair, hands on hips, standing on a branch. Smiling ants stand on ant hills surrounded by lime green flowers, and little black chickadees with starred wings traipse across a bright red T. New additions include a lavender onesie with purple piping, emblazoned with an old-fashioned pram sporting racecar flames.
Onesies come in sizes 3-6 months and 6-12 months, T's in 18-24 months and 2-4 years. They range from $20-$26. Available at PortCo 34, Bootyland, Clover, Vain and www.buyolympia.com.
